Former White House press secretary Sean Spicer was grilled on Megyn Kelly Today about President Trump’s inauguration size and the very nature of facts.

Spicer had a tumultuous tenure in the White House, often sparring with the media about the nature of facts and even saying that Syrian President Bashar Assad was guilty of acts worse than Hitler’s. But his contentious relationship with the media was kicked off with his false statement about the crowd size of Donald Trump’s inauguration.

In a press conference, Spicer said, “This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period. Both in person and around the globe.”
